Research Associate in the Division of Engineering (Civil Engineering) - Dr. Mostafa Mobasher

New York University: NYU - Global: Abu Dhabi: AD_Engineering: AD_Civil Engineering Location: Abu Dhabi, UAE Open Date: Jun 05, 2024 Description The Computational Solid Mechanics laboratory led by Professor Mostafa Mobasher in the Division of Engineering, New York University Abu Dhabi, seeks to recruit a Research Associate to work on the development of computational models for non-linear and multiphysics solid mechanics models using innovative numerical methods. Required Qualifications: A successful applicant must have a PhD in Engineering Mechanics, Civil Engineering, or Mechanical Engineering; with a focus on Computational Mechanics or a related field. Applicants are expected to demonstrate a strong research profile and extensive research experience in the development of computational solution algorithms for linear, nonlinear mechanics problems, including multiphysics problems. Preferred Qualifications: Experience in non-linear solid material response and fracture modeling Experience in machine-learning modeling for solid mechanics applications Experience in the development and coupling of numerical methods for solid mechanics modeling Experience in mentoring junior researchers including graduate and undergraduate students Research Project: The successful applicant is expected to work and lead multiple research projects aimed at improving the computational efficiency of damage and fracture mechanics algorithms for multi-fracture propagation scenarios in multiphysics conditions with multiscale considerations. The applications of this research extend to several fields, including geomechanics, biomechanics, mechanical and structural applications, and others. The Research Associate will work in a multidisciplinary environment consisting of PhD-level scientists, graduate students, and undergraduate students. The Research Associate is expected to continuously document research progress in the form of scientific publications to be submitted to reputable journals. Terms of Employment: The terms of employment include highly competitive salary, medical insurance, housing allowance, annual home-leave travel, and educational subsidies for children as well as other benefits. Application Process: For consideration, applicants need to submit a cover letter, curriculum vitae with full publication list, statement of research interests, and contact information for at least two references, all in PDF format.
